Application
trans-Anethole may be used as an analytical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in raw material, food products and pharmaceutical formulations by high performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography.
These Secondary Standards are qualified as Certified Reference Materials. These are suitable for use in several analytical applications including but not limited to pharma release testing, pharma method development for qualitative and quantitative analyses, food and beverage quality control testing, and other calibration requirements.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Naturally occurring phenylpropene derivative that is estrogenic at lower concentrations and cytotoxic at higher concentrations to cancer cell lines. The cytotoxicity is related to the metabolism of trans-anethole to 4-hydroxy-1-propenylbenzene.
Analysis Note
These secondary standards offer multi-traceability to the US and EP primary standards, where they are available.
Other Notes
This compound is commonly found in plants of the genus: pimpinella
